Technology conferences are valuable for more than product announcements and technical sessions. They also create space for the conversations that are difficult to schedule during a normal work week.
At HPE Discover 2026, Advizex team members connected with clients, partners, peers, and HPE specialists throughout the event. For Area Manager Paul Rodwell, one of the most memorable parts was spending time with clients outside of a traditional work setting. Those informal moments helped strengthen personal relationships and create a better understanding of the challenges clients are navigating.
EVP of Services Sales and SLED Director Brian Swisher also appreciated the opportunity to meet peers and customers at the Myriad360 customer event. VP& GM of the Southeast Drew Weems highlighted customer conversations and networking with HPE teams, while AE Marlon Acuna noted the value of connecting with clients, partners, and fellow technology professionals.
Those interactions can have a meaningful impact on future conversations.When teams have a better understanding of a client’s priorities and painpoints, they can bring more relevant ideas to the table.
Events like Discover also give partners an opportunity to build stronger relationships with the manufacturers and experts supporting their work. That collaboration helps Advizex continue bringing current knowledge and practical guidance to clients.
